The International Astronomical Union (IAU) downgraded the status of Pluto to that of a dwarf planet because it did not meet the three criteria the IAU uses to define a full-sized planet. Essentially Pluto meets all the criteria except one—it “has not cleared its neighboring region of other objects.

Which of the following statements is true about magnetic fields.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:  

The earth's magnetic field protects the surface from strong electrical currents coming from the sun

Explanation:

The Earth's magnetic field called the “magnetosphere” – protects our atmosphere from the “solar wind.” That's the constant stream of charged particles flowing outward from the sun. When the magnetosphere shields the Earth from these solar particles, they get funneled toward the polar regions of our atmosphere.

The Earth's magnetic field serves to deflect most of the solar wind, whose charged particles would otherwise strip away the ozone layer that  protects  the Earth from harmful ultraviolet radiation. One stripping mechanism  is  for gas to be caught in bubbles of magnetic field, which are ripped off by solar winds.

The change of motion of a body is proportional to the applied force, and it takes place in the direction of a straight line in w
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Newton's Second Law of Motion  

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the change in velocity of a body is directly proportional to the force applied on it. Velocity is a vector quantity. It measures the magnitude of the speed as well as its direction.

F = m a

where, F is the applied force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

It can also be expressed as:

F = \frac{dp}{dt}

where, p = mv ( momentum)
